What does the optimal variance investigation policy for this problem look like? For a large class of problems, the optimal variance investigation policy will be either of two forms depending on the risk-aversion of the agent: 1. e. e. Ey U (s(x, y)) < U (s(x)) for all x _ x ). e. upper2. e. Ey U (s(x, y)) > U (s(x)) for all x ! ^ x ). Notice that the optimality of one-tail variance investigation policies is certainly consistent with policies observed in practice. To understand the logic of the result, let us Wrst consider a very risk-averse agent.
However, the Informativeness Principle proves that, regardless of how noisy the signal y is, as long as (x, y) contains information about the action a not contained in x alone, incorporating it into the compensation contract results in a strict Pareto improvement. The reason is as follows. Assume that the optimal contract involving only x is s(x). A feasible (although not necessarily optimal) contract involving (x, y) is s(x) þ dy, where d is a compensation weight chosen by the principal. For small but non-zero d, adding dy to s(x) results in a strictly positive incentive beneWt, but no additional risk imposed on the agent.
Moreover, to become visible as, speciWcally, accounting, management control, or performance measurement innovations, new practices need to be framed as in some way technical-numerical. New practices would remain invisible to the accounting researcher if classiWed as an aspect of more encompassing changes in organizational processes. Performance management innovations that are part of organizational changes may be disregarded as mere technical tweaking and their contribution to substantial organizational innovation may be overlooked.
